Demure, my dear sister. Riighaye is a subclan of Warsan who migrated to the south of Somalia and Hargeesa during the reign of Ali Dable, a powerful sultan who lived around the 15th century and who imported Arab and Persian muskateers around that time. They are not alone. They have brothers like Cawrmale( I am sure you know them), Gobyawud, and Wadalmoge.
Re: Peculiar Nicknames - Clarification Needed
Gatspy was The Great Gatsby. I don't know why but Gatsby and Holden Caulfield r my favorite characters of all time. In my last yr of school i had my pc in class named Gatsby. We used to use 'NetUse' to IM each other in class, other students would know its me when they recieve a msg. One day i decided that i wanted to spy on everyone, so send them all a picture that had a trojan horse attached to it. The minute they opened the pic i would take control of thier pc or just sit back and watch everything they're doing. Later on i got caught. A pakistani classmate though i should change the Gatsby to Gat'spy', so i did. Then i thought i should get rid off my old screen name and use it here as well.

Re: Peculiar Nicknames - Clarification Needed
Your name is indeed peculiar .Demure is a shy girl , right?
But my name is pure Somali if you seperate it into suffix and prefix.
Riig is the long shaft that is thrown into bottom of the well to obtain water. And Haye means Holder.

Re: Peculiar Nicknames - Clarification Needed
Riighaaye, actually no I don't know them, never heard of any of these subclans or their history. Thanks for sharing it.
Gatspy, that's crazy and nerdy but it seems like you identify with it and it's aptly you

you're joking. Right ?
"Gat spy" Cool. I never even read it that way before. And as for Dangirl, I assumed it had something to do with Ogaden.
